Default TA gauge bezel/trim ????

I posted this question once before, but not alot of answers.
I want the black bezel trim piece that comes on the T.A. gauges. I want to put one on my Z. I've already got the white NR overlay. Please, somebody, HELP ME!!!

Simple: Camaro's don't come with bezel's in the gauges. So you get one from a T/A and put it in .

The camaro's have a flat look to them and the Trans Am's have a 2 deminsion look. There is no purpose of having them just some guys like the look better!

Here's a pic of mine to help clarify...


It really adds a nice, subtle touch to an otherwise boring gauge cluster.

By the way, do you have to modify anything for them to fit properly?

Minor, item. There is a small tab/flap on the back of the TA bezel between the tach and Speedo that needs to be broken off.

And one minor note, on the speedo you'll wind up with two needle rests. Not that noticable.

dont forget, you have to pull the needle rest off the Gauge Cluster, at the Tachometers' redline
the other 2 stay in place
The little plug thingy just comes right out.
i wasnt paying attention, and pulled all 3 out, put the dash back together, then finally realized what i did wrong when the lights came on after I put the Ebrake down (doh!)

You can also get them from MacEwen Motor Sports. You get one with a silver or white overlay as well.

You can kinda see mine from this picture:



And a little from this one:




Note: I painted mine RED to match.
